Per WP:BLOWITUP Honestly, I think this article has no hope, the cleanup tag has been up for 2 years and its still a mess.  Jay Jay Talk to me 18:43, 23 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. We do keep articles about localities but lets clean up WP in a small way by deleting it. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 20:17, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Neutral and comment: I have "blown it up", partially at least, removing all the indiscriminate lists from the article. I've found it on Google Maps, which spells the name "Tench Bhata" with one 't'. Thus, it is a confirmed geographical location, and should not be deleted, and is not bad enough to warrant WP:BLOWITUP. However, it seems from Google Maps that Tench Bhata is a neighborhood, not an independent locality, so perhaps it does not meet notability criteria. הסרפד  (Hasirpad) [formerly Ratz...bo] 20:55, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

 * Note: There is a distinct lack of reliable sources for any information about Tench Bhatta—including the etymology given in the article—on the web; very many results on Facebook, Youtube, Blogspot, etc. but reliable sources (e.g. Google Maps) only confirm that the place exists. I am taking the liberty of removing anything for which I cannot find sources, and adding the location data from Google. הסרפד (Hasirpad) [formerly Ratz...bo] 02:31, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect Well since it has been cleaned up and everything virtually removed, I propose that the article be redirected to Rawalpindi  Jay Jay Talk to me 03:37, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
 * If merged to Rawalpindi, how should it be mentioned in the article and how should it be sourced? הסרפד (Hasirpad) [formerly Ratz...bo] 19:37, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 Keep There have been countless articles in Wikipeida that started out even worse than this article (at least the way it was before being wiki-cleansed). Just because this locality is in Pakistan does not mean it should be deleted. Ottawahitech (talk) 14:37, 30 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I think the issue now is whether Tench Bhatta is a distinct locality or just a subdivision of Rawalpindi, in which case it would have to be quite independently notable not to be merged. הסרפד (Hasirpad) [formerly Ratz...bo] 19:23, 30 December 2012 (UTC)
